New Features and Products in 2020

WHAT’S NEW FOR 2020?

We’ve been working on some new additions to the Scinomix line of tube handling systems as well as a feature upgrade to the Sci-Print VX2 and Sci-Print VXL. We are excited to share them with you- take a look at what we’ve been up to!

  • Universal Gripper The patent pending Universal Gripper is an upgrade to our existing VX2 and VXL tube handlers. It is targeted specifically for labs working with a variety of different tube diameters. The new gripper allows the user to easily change between tube types (ranging from Matrix-style tubes to 50 mL) without changing any hardware. This new design was driven by customer feedback and saves valuable time in the lab!
  • RapidCAP2: The RapidCAP2 is a fully – automated capping and de-capping system for tubes ranging from 0.5 mL or 2 mL cryo vials. The user-friendly touch screen allows for quick rack configuration. This device is easy to set up and provides significant time savings.
  • AQ: *Coming Soon*. The AQ is a modular add-on to the Sci-Print VXL tube handling system. This pairing allows users to utilize the labeling and worklist features that already exist while incorporating aliquoting/pipetting functionality. One configuration example is dispensing from a 15 mL parent tube into multiple daughter tubes while requiring both tubes are capped during the liquid distribution and tube labeling. Stop by our booth to check out entire functionality and applications!
